2021 - Franco Angeli

322 p.

  • This book is a novelty in the form and content and the first of its kind in the field of the Albanian Pharmaceutical Legislation. Over the years, there have been several changes to the Albanian law "For medicinal products and pharmaceutical service". Albania is not yet a European Union member, and this book brings a contribution to the policy makers in adapting the current Albanian pharmaceutical law by confronting it with the European pharmaceutical directive 2001/83/ CE, and further modifications, and the respective Italian legislation. The authors provide a missing work in the field of harmonization of the Albanian pharmaceutical legislation with the best practices in European Union countries.
  • Step by step, the reader will be provided with different pharmaceutical aspects, such as drug placement in the market, manufacture and importation, labelling and package leaflet, classification of medicinal products, wholesale distribution and brokering of medicinal products, advertising, sanctions etc. This contribution will increase the awareness of health professionals, academia, institutions, governments and policymakers, and will encourage the implementation of European Union directives on Albanian pharmaceutical legislation. It will be also of help to the pharmaceutical sector and foreign pharmaceutical companies interested to understand better the legislation in Albania and the difference with the EU directives.
